us railroads that operated in Canada

[CSSHEGEWISCH]

BNSF of Manitoba (formerly Midland Ry of Manitoba as a joint GN/NP subsidiary) did have its own GP9.  I believe that it was built in London.

What is the number of the BNSF ML unit in Winnipeg? Was is built in Canada?

 

 

Whatever engine BNSF sends up there from Grand Forks. 

 

The Great Northern and the Northern Pacific had lines into Brandon and Portage la Prairie in Manitoba as well as the line into Winnipeg (the reason BNSF has a job in Winnipeg still).

[Miningman]

That is correct.

Norfolk and Western 

Norfolk and Western acquired the Wabash in a 1964 complex merger that included three other US roads. 
Another three US roads were also merged and then in 1982 Southern was merged to form Norfolk Southern. 
In 2011 NS ended the old Wabash perpetual running rights due in a large part to a loss of traffic. 
CN insisted NS continue to operate across the border at Fort Erie to perform interchange.

Miningman, yes the NW did have cab units, but they were on the rosters of the Wabash and NKP. Before those mergers, the NW did not have cab units.

BNSF (BNSF Manitoba Ltd) still operates a one unit switcher and has a small yard in Winnipeg. CN handles their traffic to the parent at Emerson / Noyes.

Delaware & Hudson, Boston & Maine, MEC, Penn Central (NYC), Chessie System, Conrail, Wabash. Montreal, Maine & Atlantic.. 

[MidlandMike]

NYC also had a line to Ottawa.  Maine Central had a line up into Quebec north of Beecher Falls, VT., and another line that wandered over the New Brunswick border.

New York Central also had a line to Montreal coming up the south side of Lake Ontario. CSX still operates it for now.

[MidlandMike]

C&O/PM also operated thru the southern Ontario short-cut. 

There were D&H trains to Montreal.

[Miningman]

These were all built in Canada, along with one Wabash GP7. When people say N&W did not have  F Units you can tell 'em 'balderdash' these were painted into N&W colours. Posted a picture of those on the Quiz over at Classic a while back.

664 part of 20 unit order F7A built as 1155, 1155A to 1164, 1164A 
(A125 - A144 11/1950 - 3/1951) this was C-106 the sixth order for GMD. 

670 part of 20 unit order 657-676

Also check out 'A Geeps Tale" on Classic Trains, go back one page . We did a lot on there on this subject.

For quite some time the Toronto, Hamilton & Buffalo was co-owned by Canadian Pacific and New York Central. It operated a couple of "very-Central-looking" Hudson 4-6-4s and also operated a couple of "what-an-NYC-Berksire-would-have-looked-like" 2-8-4s.

ALL:

This question is about US railroads that operated in Canada. I do know that the Great Northern purchased three switch engines from GM Canada for use at Vancouver, BC. Were the switch engines and road units that operated on the MC (NYC) and Wabash/NW also purchased in Canada? As information, the GN paid duty on about six or eight Geep's and three cabooses to run from Seattle to Vancouver. Did I miss any other railroads?
